In rebuilding the motor for my project, I had to clean about 1/2 in. of gunk from the distributor. While cleaning it up, the bushings and springs on the mechanical advance were shot. The motor is from a 68 C10 (250 i6).

For now, I fitted a bushing from a V8 kit and used the stock springs. Will this work without any troubles?

I've switched the points out for a Pertronix Ignitor 2 unit and made no other mods. The vac advance is the stock unit.
